Sean,

> I have an issue with the software: I don't have it yet!

Yes, we know, we know. The delay has been, in part, caused by the idea
of getting the literal filer to replace the old resource mechanism in
the image. Basically, it has taken about a week to do this but the
change is now complete.

To some it may seem foolhardy making such an extreme change so close to
a beta release, however we judged it as being important enough to do
so. We needed to do it now (rather than after beta 1) to avoid
incompatible versions of D6 packages being confusing during the beta.

This is the current status:

1) 55 tests failing out of 3000.
2) Deploying our working image to a Dolphin Pro install doesn't work.
3) The installer is not ready.
4) The VC has had an overhaul and undo is not yet working and there are
minor bugs.

We'll make a judgement about which of these issues can be ignored for
the first beta. I hope we aren't that far now...

Best regards
